Beginning with its exterior, the CX-4 takes styling cues from its original concept, and from the CX-5. Up front, the CX-4 sports Mazda's signature hexagonal grill and tapered LED headlight design. Towards the side, the rakish roofline from the Koeru concept makes its way in the CX-4 while large alloy wheels highlight the crossover's profile.

The interior is typical Mazda design. It has a 7-inch tablet-inspired display, multi-function 3-spoke steering wheel, central rotary control for the infotainment system, dual-zone automatic climate control and a 3-pod instrument panel.

Under the hood, the CX-4 will be available with two engines. First up is the front wheel drive (FWD) variant that is powered by a 2.0-liter SkyActiv-G inline-four that puts out 155 PS and 202 Nm of torque. It is then mated to a 6-speed automatic gearbox. Next is the all wheel drive model (AWD) that is driven by a 2.5-liter SkyActiv-G inline-four. It produces 192 PS and 252 Nm of torque and is also connected to the 6-speed automatic gearbox.

Before you get too excited, it will be produced and sold in China exclusively; though Mazda did say they are studying the possibility of offering it to other markets.
